thanks

Hi there! I hope you had a great weekend! Don't forget, it's Stamptember over at Simon Says Stamp and I really hope you'll join us for a month long stamp party full of inspiration and celebrations. It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week we are challenging you to Rock the Techniques!
I was inspired to create a tag featuring the heat embossed resist technique:
I love the contrast effect that may be achieved by heat embossing stamped images using white embossing powder. With the Autumn season right around the corner, I opted to create a fall themed tag featuring Leaves.
The background was created using a variety of Distress Inks and the sentiment is from the Simon Says Stamps Thanks set. After created the background, I embellished with Fall Leaves and a doily:
